The article is an overview and a comment on an interview with Dr. Nawal Al-Sa´adawi published on the Elaf website. Al-Sa´adawi answered questions on the concept of a religious state, marriage, pilgrimage, hijab and male-female relations. The author notes that the ideas Al-Sa´adawi expressed in the interview are ones she has long held. However, a new development is that the official website of the US Copts Association recommended her for the position of the vice-president, as the person in this position should have her culture and spirit [these US Copts allegedly say].
